Why don't you add a repository that holds a small optional
file just for tracking purposes?  If someone really doesn't
want to be counted they could remove the repository reference
and since there wouldn't be a lot of traffic you could
use a few servers where you have access to the logs.  Personally
I think it would be nice if this file itself would be updated
with the count of accesses on a monthly basis so anyone
participating in the process has access to the result.
